Let Your Light Shine Tonight

It's true that you can "fool some of the people all of the time." It is and was evidenced tonight.

Group think is an amazingly scary thing. Just consider that a certain number of people have and are going to celebrate "Earth Hour" tonight by turning off all their lights to show how much they care about the environment. I hope hospitals saw the lunacy in this display of vacuity and opted to leave the power on for the sake of those in ICU.

This, of course, is and was merely a feel good, pseudo-sacrament by those who "worship the creation" rather than the Creator and in so doing, in all their self-proclaimed wisdom and love for the environment "have become fools." (Just for the heck of it you might refer to the first chapter of the Book of Romans in the New Testament for an apt description of these folks.)

As for me and mine, we're letting our kilowatts beam forth like the Reaganesque City on the Hill for all to see. Additionally, we're getting a big chuckle from those of you yet to be "enlightened," if you'll pardon the pun.

The above photo shows earth at night and you'll notice it's the blighted, impoverished and under developed areas that are in the dark. There are those tonight in their self-imposed darkness wishing developed countries such as ours could only be more like the undeveloped countries. They are the ones who see mankind as the problem, not the solution. Sadly, they see the solution in bigger govt with higher taxation and more ridged regulations on "evil "corporations and on our own personal lives.

Even more sadly is that all three people who seek the presidency concur with bigger govt, confiscatory taxation and stifling regulations which will paralyze the economy as we know it.

Yes, it's fun to laugh at these people; they deserve nothing but derision and laughter, but it's terrifying to think of them in power.
